So that is a firewall?











from actual ticket:


walked caller through rebooting workstation

caller stated they had made some changes at the store side

the location had deleted ws3 from the system

and the printers were moved unto workstation 4 server 1

this has caused a severe printing issue

since the fire the caller was inable to get the printers active



Response from Matt:

yes, you are doing it right.

 

What's this "sport" you speak of?


  • Coworker: Hey, I'm starting a fantasy football league with a few choice people at the office - $25 buy in - serious contenders only. you in?
  • Me: I'll tell you what my college roommate used to say: "Isaac don't know shit about sports."
  • Coworker: LOL, noted.

Translate ALL the Herps and Derps!

When Matt told me about all of our German readers, we decided to see if "Herp Derp Desk" meant anything unseemly in German. Apparently not, but Google did have a fun suggestion:

The Cow Says...................... BULLSH...







From actual Ticket:


Troubleshooting: Saturday Batch did not settle. caller states that he has been in contact with [company] and said it was something on our end that needed fixed. checked with [company] who verified that they can force batch through but would need billable support. advised caller of billable support and he became irate stating that "this is bullsh!t" and that he wasnt paying for an issue that he didnt cause. advised caller i could dispatch to local for further support. caller agreed then promptly hung up the phone.

Matt Honaker- well did it work?

sEMI aLL cAPS rAGE

From actual call ticket:

Description Of Issue: Caller states he cannot get into Configurator. He notes that when he starts typing pw, it puts it in all caps, & then when he hits shift, it puts everything in lower case. He doesn't want to enter it in anymore, as it will lock him out. Caller notes this is not a big deal, but he was trying to change .......... price, but they can ring in another ............., & also, he might need to get in their later. Caller wants to know if there is a way to take pw option off from Configurator or not.
